SVU: The football player can't remember being a perv
Description
Benson and Amaro rescue a teen drawn into the world of underage sex trafficking. Fin and Rollins set up a sting to catch her customers and arrest retired quarterback Jack Stanton (Treat Williams). Olivia believes his disorientation and unusual actions are the result of concussions he received playing football, but Nick thinks it's all an act. She gets defense attorney Bayard Ellis (Andre Braugher) to take his case, much to the ire of Cabot. After he displays signs of dementia on the stand, the jury acquits him. But the QB knows the problem is his brain and calls an audible on the courthouse steps.
We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 13 episode 10 "Spiraling Down." Our guest is Ronald Young Jr. from the "Weight for It" podcast.
This episode is inspired by the 2010 arrest of Pro Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor.
